SQL Antipatterns, Volume 1: Avoiding the Pitfalls of Database Programming: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "SQL Antipatterns, Volume 1: Avoiding the Pitfalls of Database Programming" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

SQL is the ubiquitous language for software developers working with structured data. Most developers who rely on SQL are experts in their favorite language (such as Java, Python, or Go), but theyre not experts in SQL. They often depend on antipatterns - solutions that look right but become increasingly painful to work with as you uncover their hidden costs. Learn to identify and avoid many of these common blunders. Refactor an inherited nightmare into a data model that really works. Updated for the current versions of MySQL and Python, this new edition adds a dozen brand new mini-antipatterns for quick wins.

No matter which platform, framework, or language you use, the database is the foundation of your application, and the SQL database language is the standard for working with it. Antipatterns are solutions that look simple at the surface, but soon mire you down with needless work. Learn to identify these traps, and craft better solutions for the often-asked questions in this book. Avoid the mistakes that lead to poor performance and quality, and master the principles that make SQL a powerful and flexible tool for handling data and logic.

Dive deep into SQL and database design, and learn to recognize the most common missteps made by software developers in database modeling, SQL query logic, and code design of data-driven applications. See practical examples of misconceptions about SQL that can lure software projects astray. Find the greatest value in each group of data. Understand why an intersection table may be your new best friend. Store passwords securely and dont reinvent the wheel. Handle NULL values like a pro. Defend your web applications against the security weakness of SQL injection.

Use SQL the right way - it can save you from headaches and needless work, and let your application really shine!

What You Need:

The SQL examples use the MySQL 8.0 flavor, but other popular brands of RDBMS are mentioned. Other code examples use Python 3.9+ or Ruby 2.7+.

Early praise for SQL Antipatterns, Volume 1

A unique and brilliant book addressing the often overlooked craft of database programming. With clear examples and solid advice, the book takes the reader on a tour of antipatterns, some of which can severely impact your database performance or even your development flows. A great read and recommended for developers of all levels of experience.

Shlomi Noach
Database Engineer, PlanetScale

You must read this book if you develop with SQL. With clarity and thoroughness, Bill explains a wealth of knowledge and solutions that will significantly advance your proficiency with SQL.

Daniel Nichter
DBA, author of Efficient MySQL Performance , Block Inc.

I wish I had this book when I was first starting out. There are so many antipatterns in the book that had me shaking my head about my past mistakes. If only I had known.

Samuel Mullen
Senior Manager of Engineering, ActiveProspect

Chock full of useful techniques. Whether youre a novice or a veteran, youre sure to learn something new from this book. I did.

Steven Grimm
Technical Lead, Terraformation

This is a great book for SQL beginners, and it continues to be a useful reference whenever one of the antipatterns comes up. I love the See No Evil and Diplomatic Immunity chapters. They are perfect for someone trying to improve an engineering teams practices.

Max Tilford
Senior Software Engineer, Firstup

SQL Antipatterns by Bill Karwin is not only one of the best database books Ive read. But also one of the best technical books Ive read period. I have legitimately read it three times cover to cover and the things Ive learnt from it help me everyday at work.

Pim Brouwers
Senior Software Architect, National Hockey League Players Association

Bill Karwin does a great job of identifying the most common antipatterns in several aspects of working with databases, and provides clear advice for identifying these patterns and how to get away from them. If a person finds themselves designing databases or queries, that person should consider reading this book to ensure best practices are being followed.

Alex Ostrem
Database Reliability and Software Engineer, Etsy

Even for someone who is not a trained programmer, SQL Antipatterns provides a great foundation by focusing on how and why some programming approaches fail and by giving clear, narrative explanations and specific coding examples of better solutions.

Jennifer Pesek
Reference Librarian

Acknowledgments

Many people helped me along the path to learn enough to write this book.

My parents recognized my passion for computer science when I was a teenager, and they sacrificed to get me a personal computer at a time when those were not common. Also thanks to my parents and my grandfather, I got my education at the University of California.

Many professors showed me the traditional computer science theory and practice, but I want to thank two in particular: Dr. Kevin Karplus and Dr. Dan Scripture. They created a class I took on Technical Writing, which showed me how important it is to practice writing in a field that requires so much care to communicate complex ideas.

Ive been inspired by many managers and colleagues. Keith Reynolds gave me some early C code projects, which taught me that the practice of programming is mostly working on other peoples code. David Bredenberg inspired me by his example to spend time helping other software developers. Rhea Barrons coaching took my technical writing to a new level.
